Partner with Great Start Livingston to Support Local Families

At Great Start Livingston, we believe that strong communities begin with strong families. When families with young children have access to the resources and support they need, our entire community thrives. We’re calling on local businesses, organizations, and community groups to partner with us in Building Community Connections that Support Families of Young Children.

Whether you’re a local business owner, part of a civic group, or a leader in a larger corporation, you have the power to make a direct impact on the lives of families in Livingston County. Your donations and volunteer efforts can help break down barriers that prevent families from accessing early childhood resources, education, and community support.

Ways To Help

Host a Fundraiser

Support local families by organizing a fundraiser benefiting Great Start Livingston. Whether it’s a portion of your sales, a special event, or a community fundraiser, every contribution helps us build community connections.

Provide Funds for Meals and Childcare

One of the biggest barriers families face when attending events is access to meals and childcare. Your support can help us cover these costs, ensuring every family has the opportunity to participate.

Sponsor a Meal for Our Family Coalition

Our Family Coalition hosts monthly meetings that bring parents and caregivers together to connect, learn, and support one another. Providing a meal for these gatherings makes a big difference in encouraging participation.

Help with Childcare

Volunteers make it possible for parents to focus and engage during events while knowing their little ones are well cared for. If your team is interested in lending a hand, we’d love to have you join us!

Support Early Literacy & Learning

• Help maintain our StoryWalk locations by rotating book pages and keeping the installations in great shape.
• Host a book drive to provide families with access to age-appropriate books at home.
• Partner with us for a playdate and provide a story or craft.
